    1. Over the years, Donald Trump has clashed with numerous comedians: [Kathy Griffin](https://slate.com/life/2025/11/kathy-griffin-donald-trump-maga-cancel-culture-comedy.html), Jimmy Kimmel, Stephen Colbert… All three enraged him in different ways, before and after he became president, and all three have had their livelihoods affected to varying degrees as a result. But no one is more synonymous with early Trump—New York City Trump, *Apprentice* Trump, the Trump who was always calling Page Six on himself—than Rosie O’Donnell.

      After Trump’s reelection, O’Donnell decided to move her family out of the U.S., and her old foe has since threatened to revoke her citizenship. In that time, she’s had comparatively little to say onstage or on television.

      But this month, she has returned to New York with a new off-Broadway one-woman show. *Common Knowledge*, a 75-minute production that is not quite stand-up and not quite a monologue, features O’Donnell onstage talking to the audience about her move to Ireland, her wise and wry and nonbinary autistic child, and the unbearable realization that you actually have very little figured out, even at 64.

    2. Lol I do love how the MAGA’s hate a women who is a comic all because she did a little mocking of the Donald on The View back in 06.

      Like clockwork, when they want money, when they want their millions… they know how to come home.

      It’s the fact the POTUS dislikes someone and floats the idea of removing their citizenship, no other reason. Hopefully in a post trump America…the maga crowd can’t find someone as brass as him for their replacement.
